Good evening all,

Firstly, thank you for your ongoing commitment to be a voice of hope, of reason, and determined for change, not being indifferent to systemic issues plaguing child protection not only Australia, but internationally.  

Trigger Warning: some content may be distressing to some. We encourage you to read it anyway. 

ABC News are promoting constructive change in Child Protection by giving voice to the silenced. If you have not yet seen todays ABC News article "Queensland mum fights for her daughter's release after years in care", we strongly encourage you to. It can be located on our Facebook page and shared from there.

It has been alleged the child has been treated so inhumanely, that Shine Lawyers who act for the child through her litigation guardian, her mother, are investigating several government agencies. 

Despite the article stating Queensland Child Safety minister Charis Mullen was not able to comment on individual cases but has requested a 'full briefing on the matter', we are wise to know ministers would be well aware of such cases.  We also are wise to know, the family known to Child Safety may experience retaliation.  

Just Cause 316 continues to advocate for a public inquiry into the entire child protection system aka full Royal Commission. We continue to advocate for justice for murdered children known to child safety, for an indigenous father alleging corruption by multiple Queensland Government agencies, and many many more.
